An Aluminium Fuel Cell – Why Is UK government Blocking It?
Update: at the end of the video where the video audio becomes mysteriously corrupted as the converstaion turned to the advice from the business advisor’s that he went to see.
The statement that he got from these financiers was that the UK government will only support “electrically rechargeable” batteries. Meaning, “only that can be charged with nuclear power” imo

Climate change – the global emergency – theme for August 2017
“………..VI. Perpetual War The violence baked into heat.
Climatologists are very careful when talking about Syria. They want you to know that while climate change did produce a drought that contributed to civil war, it is not exactly fair to say that the conflict is the result of warming; next door, for instance, Lebanon suffered the same crop failures. But researchers like Marshall Burke and Solomon Hsiang have managed to quantify some of the non-obvious relationships between temperature and violence: For every half-degree of warming, they say, societies will see between a 10 and 20 percent increase in the likelihood of armed conflict. In climate science, nothing is simple, but the arithmetic is harrowing: A planet five degrees warmer would have at least half again as many wars as we do today. Overall, social conflict could more than double this century.
This is one reason that, as nearly every climate scientist I spoke to pointed out, the U.S. military is obsessed with climate change: The drowning of all American Navy bases by sea-level rise is trouble enough, but being the world’s policeman is quite a bit harder when the crime rate doubles. Of course, it’s not just Syria where climate has contributed to conflict. Some speculate that the elevated level of strife across the Middle East over the past generation reflects the pressures of global warming — a hypothesis all the more cruel considering that warming began accelerating when the industrialized world extracted and then burned the region’s oil.
What accounts for the relationship between climate and conflict? Some of it comes down to agriculture and economics; a lot has to do with forced migration, already at a record high, with at least 65 million displaced people wandering the planet right now. But there is also the simple fact of individual irritability. Heat increases municipal crime rates, and swearing on social media, and the likelihood that a major-league pitcher, coming to the mound after his teammate has been hit by a pitch, will hit an opposing batter in retaliation. And the arrival of air-conditioning in the developed world, in the middle of the past century, did little to solve the problem of the summer crime wave…… http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2017/07/climate-change-earth-too-hot-for-humans.html?utm_campaign=nym&utm_medium=s1&utm_source=fb

The reactions of the governments involved is bizarre.
This engineer should start making & selling fuel cells for custom electric car conversions. When the performance starts to be publicized, consumer demand would be high enough to get this tech into widespread production.
On thought: It would be very beneficial to identify the people behind-the-scenes trying to stop this tech.
why should i act so suprised
if it cannot kill or mame or make themselves rich, governments are not interested!!!
to me MP’s are jst as bad as drug dealers, mind at least you can get high and enjoyment from drugs!!
Tax, tax tax, eventually this device would ruin the worlds economy which is oil based. Imagine if you could fly without wings and take off from your backyard, this device takes that a step closer
Given the published specs for powering an EV, this fuel cell would indeed change the oil paradigm and usher in the age of the EV. That alone should make bringing this to market this most important thing we could do for the planet. We could cut car-based pollution to NOTHING.

The PTB will block any energy device that is efficient enough to challenge the fossil fuel based systems. The petrodollar must survive for a while longer. Freedom from the big utility companies is achievable, just think back to how people lived before the industrial revolution.
use kickstarter..

The government won’t support anything that doesn’t have a way of making money, either for them personally or as a tax cow. They go for Solar and Wind because they have a vested interest probably and it also means that because neither of these produce enough energy they can build more and ruin the countryside but it also means that the power has to be provided through conventional means and therefore their investments are safe. it’s always a case of “follow the money”. The wheel will turn, I wish I could have a fuel cell power unit in my house in Spain but I can’t afford it unless someone wants me to be a guinea pig. I thing FC technology is the best way forward and have done since 1996 when I first learned about it. Interestingly Mr Jackson I trained you when I was a PTI in the Royal Navy at Fisgard and again at Royal Arthur. Well done in producing the product I wish I could help you with sponsorship.
